This article will focus exclusively on the applications of VR—fully replacing the world with a realistic digital simulation of patient-specific anatomy and pathology. Augmented Reality, which puts data in the user’s field of view, like a pilot’s “heads-up display” (HUD), has many compelling applications to offer the medical profession.

Eye Tracking Apart from sessions a few years ago using the HTC Vive Pro Eye and Microsoft Hololens, I didn’t have any experience with eye tracking. Though I’m primarily a PCVR user, I’ve used enough headsets like Quest, HTC Vive Focus, and Lenovo Mirage Solo to be familiar with the benefits of going standalone.

The renderer uses an algorithm called ‘path tracing’ that photo-realistically simulates light in the virtual scene. 450 Mpix/second on an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive today is almost a seven times increase in the number of pixels per second compared to 1080p gaming at 30 FPS. These lenses are light and small, but low quality.

The HTC Vive is arguably the best out there, but having to buy a souped-up laptop just to run it, paying full price for brief games that feel more like demos, and trailing a huge cable off your head and fumbling to mount trackers on your ceiling…it’s not ideal.
